Figured out P1 and P2

I want to program my 4 buttons on my Zepto Znote 6224W!

Internetbutton: Volume Up
Emailbutton: Volume Down
P1: Start Windows Media Player
P2: Pause/ Play

Saxdave was so nice to make a walkthrough for me (last post page 2)
that I've followed and it all worked properly! Now I've installed Windows
again so I also wanna asign that 4 buttons again...

So I knew about this topic that helped me before, started to make the
registry tweaks but nothing is happening/ working and that's quite ****ty
because I'm used to it, to use that 4 buttons for my music...

 

Hmm, ok I don't know how to change the email/internet buttons to volume buttons. I would, if I wanted to read the walkthrough

But the P1 = WMP is easy

Get the driver (zip file) here

Here's a guide in danish, but maybe you'll be able to figure it out via. the pictures. If not I can translate it for you ?

 

Yes I know QL-button ;-)

But I don't need that
And you can't use it for 'volume up' 'volume down' and 'pause/ play'

I Need to make that registry tweaks, but it doesn't work anymore :-(

 

You may not need it, but it will solve your problem on the P1

 

Yeah that's true
But there is also a WMP-icon next to 'start' so that's not the work...

And if you install QL-button, the registry-tweaks of the other buttons
doesn't work anymore.. I'm hoping to 'meet' Saxdave again but.. :-s

 

I guess finding out what to do with the buttons on the 6625wd, as it allready has volume up/down and media buttons allocated.

 

You sure you're running regedit.exe as administrator?

 

Oh man, this works great!! Thanks Saxdave! Really cool.

I figured that DWORD crack down and made my own set up:

E-mail button executes Opera with Gmail
P1 Volume Down
P2 Volume Up

Awesome since the FN+FX sucks for Volume control imo.

 

I'm the only user at this computer so that is't the problem...?
But all with all it's still not working and that's quite ****ty

 

Hmm...
I installed the QLButton driver. Dunno if it's necessary. Then edited the register.

 

@CLB

Gotten it to work again?

 

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO (sorry)

Have tried it many many many times but it doesn't work anymore :-(
At the moment I'm not using that buttons but it would be great!
Maybe I'm gonna take a look at it again in this weekend!

(thanks for asking

 

SaxDave: that's cool. How did you find all of that out, and work out the scancodes?
As far as thinking a program for this would be useful, look no further than Autohotkey - very powerful, easy to learn, probably a whole lot easier than registry editing (although that does apeal to me for some reason)

CLB-NL:
go to autohotkey, install it. Here's a script that should/might do the trick for you... the p1 and p2 codes are from my 6225 and could be different on yours, and I've actually never tried to remap the launch interent key, so I'm not sure off the top of my head what it is... anyway, just copy it into a text file, and save as Startup.ahk (change "Save As..." dropdown to any file, so that your file extension ".ahk" is not considered part of the filename), and copy it to your Startup folder.

Code:

Browser_Home::Send, {Volume_Up}
Launch_Mail::Send, {Volume_Down}
SC174::Send, {Launch_Media}
SC173::Send, {Media_Play_Pause}

that *might* work... if it doesn't it's simply my off-the-top-of-the-head code, but as you can see this sort of remapping is very simple, and a post in the autohotkey forum, or a read of the extensive help file would find you a solution very quickly.


edit: p.s. will try to remember to come back here and check for replies. Autohotkey is really very easy to use, and I recommend it to everyone - I haven't got the QLButton thing installed - use this instead to remap keys for a variety of programs, and to mes with my bluetooth mouse.

 

YOU ARE THE MAN! YOU ARE THE MAN! YOU ARE THE MAN! YOU ARE THE MAN! YOU ARE THE MAN! YOU ARE THE MAN! YOU ARE THE MAN! YOU ARE THE MAN! YOU ARE THE MAN! YOU ARE THE MAN! YOU ARE THE MAN! YOU ARE THE MAN! YOU ARE THE MAN! YOU ARE THE MAN! YOU ARE THE MAN!

Not making any changes in the registry but just followed your instructions!

Thanks thank thanks!

(could you 'change' the FN and Control button with this software?)

 

I'm a bit surprised that worked.

Just had a go and the Fn key cannot be reconfigured by autohotkey - seems to work at a level too basic/hardware for the program to register it (and I guess probably also for Windows to register the Fn key on it's own... unless of course yopu managed it with the registry hack?)

 

YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YOU ARE GREAT

Okay that's fine by me! Was asking it for some other Zepto users

 

And I'm still happy with it (A)

 

Nice!!!

 

any further shortcut wishes, post 'em up, you never know, I might be able to help.
Or use the autohotkey help file and forum.

 

I'm thinking of replacing the 'volume down' and 'volume up'
to 'previous song' and 'next song' That should be nice with hardware buttons

But it is still amazing! Missed it for months and now it works! Yeaaaahaaa

 

{Media_Next} and {Media_Prev} are what you want.

I use Foobar, and my 6625 has media keys on the front. I found it annoying having to activate foobar each time I wanted to e.g. pause a song (easy enough with the power button, but these things irritate me), so I have a script that sends messages to it whether it is the active window or not

Code:

SC110::
IfWinNotExist ahk_class {DA7CD0DE-1602-45e6-89A1-C2CA151E008E}/1
    return
ControlSend, ahk_parent, +v
return

SC122::
IfWinNotExist ahk_class {DA7CD0DE-1602-45e6-89A1-C2CA151E008E}/1
    return
ControlSend, ahk_parent, \
return

SC124::
IfWinNotExist ahk_class {DA7CD0DE-1602-45e6-89A1-C2CA151E008E}/1
    return
ControlSend, ahk_parent, z
return

SC119::
IfWinNotExist ahk_class {DA7CD0DE-1602-45e6-89A1-C2CA151E008E}/1
    return
ControlSend, ahk_parent, v
return

the winexist line looks for Foobar, the controlsend line sends back, play/pause, stop and forward - key shortcuts set up in foobar.

 

Is it possible to configure the media control buttons on the 6625 as well? Currently they can change track on WMP even when I dont have the WMP window selected (very handy when playing games). Can that be changed so they control iTunes instead?

 

Reveny:
yes, that's what the code is for. I haven't got Itunes installed on either of my computers, so I can't check it's id, but I can tell you how to.
... actually, their forum has a script to do it already:
http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/topic5727.html&highlight=itunes


What you will need to do is edit the script to use the scancodes above; SC110, SC122, SC124, SC119 - which are the frist 4 of 5 media keys. Swap those for whichever functions you want in that script.

 

Thx alot!

Works like a charm :]

 

glad you got it working.

 

I just wanted to let stutter know that I really really still like it!!! Thanks!

 

good, I'm glad.

I use my P1, P2, and Mail buttons with this as well, and with modifier keys:
e.g. P1 opens [Music], Shift+P1 opens [Samples], Ctrl+P1 opens [Plugins]

If anyone's interested, just ask

 

Thanks stutter great find! Here's what I use, the command line of foobar2k let's me escape scripting

Code:

;Foobar2000 Controls
Media_Prev::Run "C:\Program Files (x86)\foobar2000\foobar2000.exe" /prev
Media_Play_Pause::Run "C:\Program Files (x86)\foobar2000\foobar2000.exe" /playpause
Media_Stop::Run "C:\Program Files (x86)\foobar2000\foobar2000.exe" /stop
Media_Next::Run "C:\Program Files (x86)\foobar2000\foobar2000.exe" /next
Launch_Media::Run "C:\Program Files (x86)\foobar2000\foobar2000.exe" /exit

 

that's smart.
On the off chance you're a foobar guru... this is going to be a really extended question, and really not the place for it, I'll ask at their forum...
Anyway, cannot recommend autohotkey enough

(edit:, No, I won't ask at their forum, because the registration takes 5 days. Eh?)

 

OYYYYYYYEAHHHH I JUST WANT TO THANK YOU AGAIN!
Have installed a 64 bit Windows Vista, so I needed this! Whiejaaaa thanks!!

 

I recently installed Windows 7 Ultimate, and i can't find the same folders in regedit, could someone just update the paths for the changing of P1, P2, email-button and so on (the original post)?
